Summary/Abstract: The article briefly presents the concept and specificity of the SME sector, indicating that legal conditions may constitute a barrier to the creation and development of this sector of enterprises. On the basis of the established legal barriers, actions of the EU and national bodies aimed at the elimination of these barriers in the context of the legislative process are indicated (e.g. the Small Business Act, the Strategy for Responsible Development until 2020 (with a perspective until 2030)). The study also analyses the provisions regulating the principles of legislative technique and normative acts in the area of economic law relating to the methodology of legislative work. The result of these studies is the finding that in Article 66 sec. 1 point 2 and art. 68 of the Entrepreneurs' Law, the special position of the SME sector has been emphasized and solutions have been introduced that make it necessary to take into account the specificity of these enterprises atthe stage of designing normative acts.
